Good-night? ah! no; the hour is ill / Which severs those it should unite; / Let us remain together still, / Then it will be GOOD night.

How can I call the lone night good, / Though thy sweet wishes wing its flight? / Be it not said, thought, understood- / Then it will be-GOOD night.

To hearts which near each other move / From evening close to morning light, / The night is good; because, my love, / They never SAY good-night.
